Hi Rajesh,

A rank of 23,000 in AP ICET is moderate. The chance of you getting a seat depends on multiple factors like category, gender, local area, and number of seats available. Since you belong to BC-A, you have had a slightly better chance than general category students.

However, you can expect difficulty getting on the preferred courses in top universities like Andhra University (AU) for MBA/MCA. Your rank of 23,000 means you have a low chance admission to these preferred courses, especially in high demanded courses/specializations. You can still expect a seat in:

1. AU (not the main campus) affiliated colleges
2. Other decent universities or private colleges
3. You can research colleges in SVU or JNTU-K regions as cutoff ranks in BC-A may be higher.

With an AP ICET rank of 28,950, you have a fair chance of getting an MCA seat at Madanapalle Institute of Technology and Science (MITS), depending on the category you belong to and the availability of seats. MITS generally offers admissions based on cutoff ranks, which can vary annually. If you belong to a reserved category or have local area preferences, your chances improve. Keep an eye on counseling updates for the specific seat allotment trends at MITS.

With an AP ICET rank of 291, you have a strong chance of securing an MCA seat at both JNTUK (Jawaharlal Nehru Technological University, Kakinada) and AU (Andhra University), as they typically have higher cutoffs. However, being from the OU region, you might be considered a non-local candidate, which could slightly reduce your chances. Focus on the counseling process, as a high rank like yours makes admission highly likely, especially in top-tier institutions like these.
